Need help with window treatments.

13 years ago

My dining room windows are on the front of the house so I need some privacy from the street, but I also want warmth and a drawn together look from the inside. Thinking a way to accomplish this is a fabric panel plus a shade or a wooden blind. Having trouble finding pictures that seem on point. Does anyone have any advice or pictures?

I would actually recommend a Silhouette type blind it will really soften the space and look alot more formal for a dining space. As for the drapery I would recommend a Decorative Rod it should be mounted about 6'' above the window . The drapery panels should be 24'' on either side to really frame the window and finish the look. I have attached a few pictures at the bottom however I would recommend 1 rod across. Hope this helps!

Try roman shades with a drape. If you are not going custom ( you can get custom at Lowes or Home Depot) Go to JCPenney.com. There are many on their website in different fabrics.
